The Top 5 Ways Niacinamide is Beneficial for Healthy Skin- Skin Perfection Natural and Organic Skin Care

Another day, another skin ingredient you need in your skincare regimen!

While there are countless “must-try” skincare ingredients, niacinamide is one you can count on. Supported by extensive scientific research, niacinamide has been proven to bring our your skin’s best!

Also known as Vitamin B3, niacinamide is an essential nutrient our bodies rely upon for good health. A body lacking Vitamin B3 may result in unwanted conditions; therefore, maintaining your niacinamide levels is good for both your skin and health.

Niacinamide is a water-soluble vitamin that functions with natural substances in the skin to renew the skin’s barrier, brighten, lighten, tighten the skin, balance oil production, restore damaged DNA, act as an anti-inflammatory, and more!

Our new product, 10% Niacinamide Serum, contains a 10% niacinamide concentration to improve skin without irritation. We’ve put just the right amount of this vitamin to benefit your skin without being too aggressive.

In this post, we will discuss the benefits of niacinamide, the difference between topicals and supplements regarding skin health, and our 10% Niacinamide Serum!

Benefits

Niacinamide is a stable vitamin we cannot produce independently; incorporating it in our skincare routine and diet is imperative for personal wellness. So, what are the benefits of this all-encompassing skincare ingredient?

Restores the Skin's Natural Barrier

Before we get into any other benefits, the main benefit of niacinamide is that it replenishes your skin’s natural barrier. Without a healthy skin barrier, your skin will not be cooperative with what you want it to do or how you want it to look. Taking care of the foundation of your skin before specifically addressing skin concerns will save you a lot of time and frustration!

Soothes the Skin

Because this vitamin plays a part in maintaining the health of the skin’s barrier, this can help lock in moisture and defend against unwanted irritants. This creates a safe environment for those with sensitive skin.

Niacinamide boasts of anti-inflammatory properties that welcome skin needing to be soothed. An experiment concluded that topical vitamin B3 and calcipotriene (medication) greatly heal those with psoriasis.

Offers Deep Moisturizing Properties

Niacinamide can hydrate the skin as the day is long. One study uncovered that niacinamide proved to be a superior skin hydrator compared to petrolatum jelly! Unlike petroleum jelly, this vitamin immensely reduced trans-epidermal water loss (water evaporating from the skin’s surface which can lead to an array of concerns) in the skin, making it the better moisturizer.

Prevents Premature Aging Due To Sun Exposure

Using Niacinamide can protect your skin with more than sunscreen and healthy sub-habits. Its efficient makeup can reconstruct healthy skin cells and protect them from harmful sun rays. This rejuvenation of DNA can dramatically improve the skin by working from the inside out!

Reduces Hyperpigmentation

While the sun is the top culprit for causing hyperpigmentation, there are other reasons you may be experiencing skin discoloration, such as hormonal fluctuations.

A natural way to correct hyperpigmentation is to regularly apply a product infused with Vitamin A. Like our 10% Niacinamide Serum! Concentrations of 10% niacinamide move through various pathways to stop fresh skin discolorations from surfacing.

Combat what hyperpigmentation has yet to come, or combat what hyperpigmentation you have. Data discloses that niacinamide acts as a successful skin-lightening ingredient. Consistant application can even out your skin’s tone and lighten any dark spots.

Regulations Oil Production

Make peace with your oily skin with a daily dose of niacinamide! Separate clinical trials were held in both Japan and the USA to determine how 2% niacinamide affected the facial oil production of different ethnic groups. Results showed that the 2% niacinamide significantly impacted lowering the amount of oil produced and oil levels in both groups!

Moreover, niacinamide is infamous for minimizing the appearance of pore size and clearing the gunk that enlarges your pores to begin with. A 12-week study discovered that topical salicylic acid and niacinamide resulted in smaller pore sizes, fewer visible pores, and improved skin texture.

Fights Aging

When it comes to lovers and fighters, there aren’t many lovers when it comes to aging; primarily fighters. However, Vitamin A is a preferred skincare ingredient among experts to refine fine lines and wrinkles. The reason being is that it stimulates collagen production, along with other proteins that contribute to skin’s youthful appearance!

Topicals Vs. Supplements

Niacinamide can be used topically or taken via supplements. Research reveals that topical niacinamide has a more powerful effect on the skin, rather than niacinamide supplements.

While there are benefits to orally intaking niacinamide, there does pose health risks and the chance of nutrients not fully impacting your skin’s health.

Thankfully, most people receive enough niacinamide through their diets, so needing supplements is rare.

If taken orally, take no more than 35 milligrams per day to stay on the safe side. Unless advised by a doctor, stick to topical niacinamide for your individualized, skincare pursuits!

Skin Perfection's 10% Niacinamide Serum

Safe for all skin types, our 10% Niacinamide Serum is just the serum you need in your skincare line-up! Apart from containing 10% niacinamide, it additionally includes other powerhouse ingredients such as hyaluronic acid, aloe vera, and zinc PCA.

Hyaluronic acid boosts hydration, aloe vera calms the skin, and zinc PCA helps manage normal oil levels. Together, these ingredients make for an effective serum suitable for maintaining, protecting, and repairing skin.

Whether you’re looking to tame your acne-prone skin, treat hyperpigmentation, or defy aging, this serum will help you get the desired results!

To use this serum, apply only a few drops to bare, cleansed skin. Then, firmly pat the serum on your skin to ensure it optimally penetrates. Follow up with a moisturizer or facial oil to seal the deal. Feel free to use this product both morning and night! As always, follow it with an SPF, if used in the morning.

While niacinamide has been found to protect the skin from the sun, adding an extra layer of SPF to shield your skin is still wise.

Go out and enjoy the beautiful skin you’re in!
